two, with romney we don't know exactly what sort of foreign policy he would follow. the romney of the most recent debates was saying very different things than what was being said before. if you want one example of things that could flub up from day one, romney has said if he becomes president, he would declare china a currency manipulator on this very first day. that might have been okay ten years ago or five years ago when china didn't see itself as a much bigger sort of superpower to rival america. if he comes out and does it this time, i don't think china is in the mood to take ultimatums from an american president. you would immediately have a very rookie path there, including a not very nice trade spat. >> is there a way in which to gauge which candidate the world or the majority of foreign nations would prefer to win that white house race? >> i think on the whole, if you look at the national polls done by people outside america, they tend to favor i wouldn't read too much into that. i think again and again the europeans tend to favor the democratic candidate f

we have the fundamentals of egypt's foreign policy orientations very much unchanged. the strategic partnership with the united states, egypt's commitment to the egyptian-israeli peace treaty, have all remained very much intact. contrary to widespread expectation following the overthrow of the mubarak regime, there has been no radical shift in egypt's regional alliances. there has been no option of diplomatic ties to iran. there has been no drastic change in egypt's policy towards the hamas government in gaza, or the border regime between the sinai and the gaza strip. there is a recognition, i think, on the part of the government, of the need to leverage the network of relationships and alliances that egypt has formed over the last three decades to deal with what is a very difficult economic situation, domestically. and i will talk about that a little bit further on. so we see on the level of foreign policy much more consistency and much more durability and any sense of radical change, as was the expectation following the outbreak of the revolution. now, that does not

both candidates are forced to deal with an unexpected and genuine giant foreign policy crisis. >> on sunday the israeli government ordered total mobilization. on monday, their armed forces penetrated deeply into egypt and to the vicinity of the suez canal, nearly 100 miles away. and on tuesday, the british and french governments delivered a 12-hour ultimatum to israel and egypt, now followed up by armed attack against egypt. the united states was not consulted in any way about any phase of these actions. nor were we informed of them in advance. >> president eisenhower sounding kind of mad, right? the u.s. had not been informed about the attack ahead of time. because ike had made clear to our allies, to england specifically, that he didn't want another big multi-country conflict in the world. he'd worked with the u.n. to keep that attack from happening. he had made his intentions clear and then england and france just went behind his back and did it anyway and they did it a week before he was facing re-election. >> president dwight d. eisenhower is re-elected to the highest office in

but, governor, when it comes to our foreign policy, you seem to want to import the foreign policies of the 1980s, just like the social policies of the 1950s and the economic policies of the 1920s. you say that you're not interested in duplicating what happened in iraq, but just a few weeks ago you said you think we should have more troops in iraq right now. and the -- the challenge we have -- i know you haven't been in a position to actually execute foreign policy, but every time you've offered an opinion, you've been wrong. you said we should have gone into iraq despite the fact that there were no weapons of mass destruction. you said that we should still have troops in iraq to this day. you indicated that we shouldn't be passing nuclear treaties with russia, despite the fact that 71 senators, democrats and republicans, voted for it. you've said that first we should not have a timeline in afghanistan then you said we should. now you say maybe or it depends, which means not only were you wrong but you were also confusing and sending mixed messages both to our troops and our allies. so

they didn't take full advantage of mitt romney's lack of experience with foreign policy. in helping to connect the dots between an inexperienced person with foreign policy and the domestic economy. he could have connected the dots better between george bush rush sbug w rushing into war and he didn't do that. this is a man who had to flee, basically, the states. he characterized as he decided to go to the olympics. but the truth of the matter is he had a sub-40% approval rating when he was leaving office. it wasn't as if he opted to leave, voters were kicking him out. he did not do a good job. president obama pointed that ouou out. he spent too much time on taxes and bain capital. the other thing i think they did not do well was connect the dots with women's rights. they spent too much time on abortion and contraceptives and not enough time pointing out the democrats putting forth with women. he didn't do a good job pointing that out. >> okay. lz and anna, don't go anywhere. we're going to ask each of you what the mitt romney campaign did right and what they did wrong. thi
